Mount Juliet was born on the headwaters of Stoner's (Lick) Creek,
which was named after 18th-century long hunter Michael Stoner. The
small agrarian community had a handful of families who raised
cattle and were dedicated to digging into the rocky soil, planting
crops to make ends meet. Plans moved full-steam ahead for the
Nashville, Chattanooga, and St. Louis Railroad. God-fearing country
folks filled churches, while others lifted their spirits at Eagle
Tavern. Some historians say the city's moniker derived from a manor
in County Kilkenny, Ireland. As time progressed, images of the
bucolic setting faded, and a modern-day frontier of infrastructure
took shape. Adjacent to Nashville, the country music capital, Mount
Juliet was in a prime position for growth. The city became home for
producing pioneer Owen Bradley, who helped make Patsy Cline and
Loretta Lynn legendary entertainers, and country icon Charlie
Daniels. The "City Between the Lakes" is now one of the state's
fastest growing communities, boasting nearly 400 new houses each
year and a new business permit every two days.
